Dell closes Oregon call center after 5 years

By

Computer manufacturer Dell Inc. closed its Roseburg, Ore., call center on Thursday, five years after it opened. More than 200 employees learned about yesterday morning that they had lost their jobs.

“It’s a difficult decision to make and one we understand is significant for the people affected, so we’re doing everything we can to help them transition beyond Dell,” spokesman David Frink told the Roseburg News-Review. He said the company announced plans in May to reduce employment worldwide by 10 percent. He said the Roseburg location is the only such center in the United States to close.
